Skills:

At the skills level, divers focus primarily on fundamentals, and building
skills. The emphasis on skills is specifically designed to teach divers the
proper body alignment, proper boardwork and proper execution in order to
facilitate safety and progression in the learning process. Once the basics
are properly learned and have become a natural part of the divers'
progression, we begin building a "list" of dives. These divers commit to
practice at least 2x a week, and they typically compete in novice events at
invitational meets, as determined by the coaching staff.

Competitive:
The competitive divers have developed the proper skills to begin to move to
the next level in their training. They commit to year-round training, and
they commit to practicing 3+ days/week. These divers have a JO-list of
dives on at least one board, and compete at the JO level in their age group
whenever possible. They are expected to travel to some regional, zone and
national meets, as determined by the coaching staff.

JO:
NextGen JO divers have JO-lists on both 1-meter and 3-meter boards. They
commit to train year-round, and practice 5 days a week. These divers are
expected to travel to regional, zone, and national meets.
